DRC bfc3ce31 2018-04-10T15:50:22 x86[-64] SIMD: Don't auto-generate jsimdcfg.inc The old Un*x (autotools-based) build system always auto-generated this file, but that behavior was more or less a relic of the days before the libjpeg-turbo colorspace extensions were implemented. The thinking was that, if a particular developer wanted to change RGB_RED, RGB_GREEN, RGB_BLUE, or RGB_PIXELSIZE in order to compress from/decompress to different RGB pixel layouts, then the SIMD extensions should automatically respond to those changes whenever they were made to jmorecfg.h. The modern reality is that changing RGB_* is no longer necessary because of the libjpeg-turbo colorspace extensions, and changing any of the other constants in jsimdcfg.inc can't be done without making deeper modifications to the SIMD extensions. In general, we treat RGB_* as a de facto, immutable part of the legacy libpjeg API. Realistically, since the values of those constants have been the same in every Un*x distribution released in the past 20-30 years, any software that uses a system-supplied build of libjpeg must assume that those constants will have default values. Furthermore, even if it made sense to auto-generate jsimdcfg.inc, it was never possible to do so on Windows, so it was always going to be necessary to manually generate the Windows version of the file whenever any of the constants changed. This commit introduces a new custom CMake target called "jsimdcfg" that can be used, on Un*x platforms, to generate jsimdcfg.inc on demand, although this should only be necessary when introducing new x86 SIMD instructions or making other deep modifications, such as SIMD acceleration for 12-bit JPEGs. For those who may be wondering why we don't do the same thing for win/jconfig.h.in, it's because performing all of the necessary CMake checks to populate that file is very slow on Windows.
DRC 293263c3 2018-03-17T15:14:35 Format preprocessor macros more consistently Within the libjpeg API code, it seems to be more the convention than not to separate the macro name and value by two or more spaces, which improves general readability. Making this consistent across all of libjpeg-turbo is less about my individual preferences and more about making it easy to automatically detect variations from our chosen formatting convention. I intend to release the script I'm using to validate this stuff, once it matures and stabilizes a bit.
DRC 19c791cd 2018-03-08T10:55:20 Improve code formatting consistency With rare exceptions ... - Always separate line continuation characters by one space from preceding code. - Always use two-space indentation. Never use tabs. - Always use K&R-style conditional blocks. - Always surround operators with spaces, except in raw assembly code. - Always put a space after, but not before, a comma. - Never put a space between type casts and variables/function calls. - Never put a space between the function name and the argument list in function declarations and prototypes. - Always surround braces ('{' and '}') with spaces. - Always surround statements (if, for, else, catch, while, do, switch) with spaces. - Always attach pointer symbols ('*' and '**') to the variable or function name. - Always precede pointer symbols ('*' and '**') by a space in type casts. - Use the MIN() macro from jpegint.h within the libjpeg and TurboJPEG API libraries (using min() from tjutil.h is still necessary for TJBench.) - Where it makes sense (particularly in the TurboJPEG code), put a blank line after variable declaration blocks. - Always separate statements in one-liners by two spaces. The purpose of this was to ease maintenance on my part and also to make it easier for contributors to figure out how to format patch submissions. This was admittedly confusing (even to me sometimes) when we had 3 or 4 different style conventions in the same source tree. The new convention is more consistent with the formatting of other OSS code bases. This commit corrects deviations from the chosen formatting style in the libjpeg API code and reformats the TurboJPEG API code such that it conforms to the same standard. NOTES: - Although it is no longer necessary for the function name in function declarations to begin in Column 1 (this was historically necessary because of the ansi2knr utility, which allowed libjpeg to be built with non-ANSI compilers), we retain that formatting for the libjpeg code because it improves readability when using libjpeg's function attribute macros (GLOBAL(), etc.) - This reformatting project was accomplished with the help of AStyle and Uncrustify, although neither was completely up to the task, and thus a great deal of manual tweaking was required. Note to developers of code formatting utilities: the libjpeg-turbo code base is an excellent test bed, because AFAICT, it breaks every single one of the utilities that are currently available. - The legacy (MMX, SSE, 3DNow!) assembly code for i386 has been formatted to match the SSE2 code (refer to ff5685d5344273df321eb63a005eaae19d2496e3.) I hadn't intended to bother with this, but the Loongson MMI implementation demonstrated that there is still academic value to the MMX implementation, as an algorithmic model for other 64-bit vector implementations. Thus, it is desirable to improve its readability in the same manner as that of the SSE2 implementation.
